School bonds would help Orion's future

I am writing in suport of the two bond proposals that will be before the Orion Township voters on Aug. 6. The Lake Orion School District is fortunate to have an excellent administration, staff and teachers. They care about the children nad have taught them to be excellent citizens who value their education.

The Orion administration and school board have worked hard to maintain costs during these challenging economic times. However, a time comes when a millage increase is needed to keep up with the increased costs of maintaining an excellent learning environment, technology upgrades, security and building improvements which must be completed at this time. Because the school district has shown serious fiscal responsibility, I am confident that the Orion School District will continue to respect the taxpayersí investment and spend in a conservative manner.

A vote in favor of the two Orion School District bond proposals is an investment in the future of our school district, children and community. As community residents, we work together to maintain a safe place to raise and educate the youth of our society. As we all know, the youth of today are the future leaders of tomorrow.
